Who Are We
[Verse 1]
Once we walked 'mongst the garden of stars
Their light grew dim and soon they would fall
Once we sang ’mongst celestial choir
Their voice grew tired and soon they sang no more

[Pre-Chorus]
Once we set our scabrous feet on the riverbank
The days will grow dark, the river will dry
And once we build our temple to the mountaintop
The oceans will rise, the mountain will fall

[Chorus]
Who we are will darken the sun and stars
Set the world ablaze, wе bring on the end of days
For who are wе to tell the rain not to fall?
The streams not to flow, tell the wolves not to howl?

[Verse 2]
Here we stand 'mongst the ashes of life
A life we knew, we loved, we scorned, we burnt
Here we sing, out of key and alone
Our voice is tired and soon we'll sing no more

[Pre-Chorus]
Once we set our scabrous feet on the riverbank
The days did grow dark, the river did dry
And once we built our temple to the mountaintop
The oceans did rise, the mountain did fall

[Chorus]
Who we are will darken the sun and stars
Set the world ablaze, we bring on the end of days
For who are we to tell the rain not to fall?
The streams not to flow, tell the wolves not to howl?

[Post-Chorus]
Who are we to tell the sun when to shine?
The thunder when not to roar, tell the waves when to break?
Who are we to tell the sun when to shine?
The thunder when not to roar, tell the waves when to break?
